We loved our stay in Gig Harbor. The host was very attentive and the house was very clean. The beds were comfortable. Everything about the house was nice however it is listed as within walking distance to downtown Gig Harbor. It is actually a 30 minute walk straight downhill to the harbor and then another 30 minute walk uphill! To me that is not within walking distance but other than that, we’d loved the accommodation and the location

This is a top-notch host & vacation rental. Easy communication, check in, & check out. The decor is tasteful with layers of textiles & textures. The bed was comfortable & the entire unit was very clean. The kitchen is well stocked & there are lovely host touches for guest comfort everywhere. The entire unit is beautifully remodeled and very well planned out. It was so nice to have access to park the car in the garage and be able to wash and dry clothes, if needed. We took suggestions from the guest book & had dinner at Fondi Pizza, & breakfast at Devoted Kiss, both of which were excellent. This is a terrific little gem of a vacation rental!

The two of us stayed here for two weeks. We were happy to see the VRBO property description and photos were accurate. It was so clean you would think it was a brand-new property. Lovely kitchen appliances, faucets, and cabinet pulls. Well stocked kitchen and bathroom towels. The washer and dryer are great. Everything seemed new. Oh, in addition, the two-car garage was great. The host was great and always responded quickly.Located close to Gig Harbor as well as large shopping centers.

I can’t say enough about this place! Beautiful interior, clean, and very equipped! Michelle was communicative from start to finish and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay with friends that we hadn’t seen nine years! I wish she had more properties scattered around for us to occupy. Gig Harbor is lovely and has grown a lot since we were last here. Thank you so much!

Very cute home! Nicely decorated, pet friendly, master bedroom bed was very comfortable. Bedroom stayed nice and dark so we actually slept in which we hardly ever do! Very quiet, great location.The home was well stocked with all the necessities! Extra blankets, pillows, shampoo, conditioner, & body wash in the bathrooms along with q-tips & even toothbrushes, toothpaste, & disposable razors if you forgot yoursIf you needed to do laundry, everything you’d need is there. Same with the kitchen. Host thought of everything and she even had snacks on the kitchen table if you wanted some. We will definitely stay here again!
